The first part is done as part of // a normal GC cycle when objects are marked or evacuated. At this time a check is // applied on each object to check if it is a candidate for deduplication. If so, the // object is placed on the deduplication queue for later processing. The second part, // processing the objects on the deduplication queue, is a concurrent phase which // starts right after the stop-the-wold marking/evacuation phase. This phase is // executed by the deduplication thread, which pulls deduplication candidates of the // deduplication queue and tries to deduplicate them. // // A deduplication hashtable is used to keep track of all unique character arrays // used by String objects. When deduplicating, a lookup is made in this table to see // if there is already an identical character array somewhere on the heap. If so, the // String object is adjusted to point to that character array, releasing the reference // to the original array allowing it to eventually be garbage collected. If the lookup // fails the character array is instead inserted into the hashtable so that this array // can be shared at some point in the future. // // Candidate selection criteria is GC specific. // // Interned strings are a bit special. They are explicitly deduplicated just before // being inserted into the StringTable (to avoid counteracting C2 optimizations done // on string literals), then they also become deduplication candidates if they reach // the deduplication age threshold or are evacuated to an old heap region. The second // attempt to deduplicate such strings will be in vain, but we have no fast way of // filtering them out. This has not shown to be a problem, as the number of interned // strings is usually dwarfed by the number of normal (non-interned) strings. // // For additional information on string deduplication, please see JEP 192, // http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/192 // #include "gc/shared/stringdedup/stringDedupQueue.hpp" #include "gc/shared/stringdedup/stringDedupStat.hpp" #include "gc/shared/stringdedup/stringDedupTable.hpp" #include "memory/allocation.hpp" #include "runtime/thread.hpp" // // Main interface for interacting with string deduplication. // class StringDedup : public AllStatic { private: // Single state for checking if string deduplication is enabled. static bool _enabled; public: // Returns true if string deduplication is enabled. static bool is_enabled() { return _enabled; } // Stop the deduplication thread. static void stop(); // Immediately deduplicates the given String object, bypassing the // the deduplication queue. static void deduplicate(oop java_string); static void parallel_unlink(StringDedupUnlinkOrOopsDoClosure* unlink, uint worker_id); static void threads_do(ThreadClosure* tc); static void print_worker_threads_on(outputStream* st); static void verify(); // GC support static void gc_prologue(bool resize_and_rehash_table); static void gc_epilogue(); protected: // Initialize string deduplication. // QUEUE: String Dedup Queue implementation // STAT: String Dedup Stat implementation template static void initialize_impl(); }; // // This closure encapsulates the closures needed when scanning // the deduplication queue and table during the unlink_or_oops_do() operation. // class StringDedupUnlinkOrOopsDoClosure : public StackObj { private: BoolObjectClosure* _is_alive; OopClosure* _keep_alive; public: StringDedupUnlinkOrOopsDoClosure(BoolObjectClosure* is_alive, OopClosure* keep_alive); // Applies and returns the result from the is_alive closure, or // returns true if no such closure was provided. bool is_alive(oop o) { if (_is_alive != NULL) { return _is_alive->do_object_b(o); } return true; } // Applies the keep_alive closure, or does nothing if no such // closure was provided. void keep_alive(oop* p) { if (_keep_alive != NULL) { _keep_alive->do_oop(p); } } }; #endif // SHARE_VM_GC_SHARED_STRINGDEDUP_STRINGDEDUP_HPP
